After being so secured together the se'parateaband ply is drawn out intoapproximately" lie-same plane with the continuous top'and ply; as shownin Figs. 5 and 6, and t e p'rojeoting'faced end of the band is turnedinside out, as shown in.

Fig. 51 The separate topplyithen turned 2 I inside out over upon the opposite side of the continuous top and band ply to the position shown in Figs. 7 and 8, and the free edge of the separate band ply is inturned, as shown at 10 in said figures. The separate band ply is then folded over along the line of its runseam connection 4 upon the baud portion of the continuous top and band ply with its folded edge 10 applied to an overlapping and unfinished edge 12 of the separate top ply 3, and'a line of stitching 13 is inserted through the infolded edge 10 of the band ply and the other folds of the collar along the fold-line thereof. An edge line of stitching 14 is then inserted along all the edges of the top and band and huttonholes are inserted in the usual manner to complete the collar.

A collar thus formed presents no seam along the fold-line on its obverse side, but is provided with such a seam along its fold-line on its reverse side formed by a folded edge of the separate band ply, which serves as a guide gin folding the top over upon the band of the collar in position for use.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

The herein-described method of making fold-collars which consists in forming a conbetween said plies, securing along the fourth side of said continuous top and band ply in inverted position by a run-seam a separate band ply, inturning the ends of the band portion of the continuous top and hand ply to form a folded edge thereon when finished, securing to the projecting ends of the separate band ply a facing ply with their connected edges inturned and concealed, inverting the free edge of the separate band ply, folding over the separate band ply upon the reverse side of the band portion of the continuous top and band ply with its folded edge lapping the unfinished edge of the separate top ply, securing the lapping edges of the separate top and band plies together by stitching, and finishing the collar in the usual manner.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 30th day of January, 1904.
